1. Bajo de la Alumbrera, Argentina.

Location: 27.33°S., 66.61°W.

Grade/Tonnage: Proffett (2003): 605 Mt, 0.54 percent Cu, 0.64 g/t Au. Singer and others (2008): 806 Mt at 0.53 percent Cu, 0.64 g/t Au, 2.5 g/t Ag.

Associated Deposits: Agua Tapada (porphyry), Bajo de San Lucas (porphyry), Cerro Atajo (porphyry), El Durazno (porphyry), Las Pampitas (porphyry).

Regional Geologic Setting: Miocene uplift of the PunaAltiplano; subduction-related.

Regional Tectonic Setting: Dominantly NW–SE compression with minor NE–SW extension younger than sericitic alteration. No evidence for significant local structures prior to mineralization.

Significant structural control on magma emplacement and mineralization (Y/N): No.

Primary Host Rocks: Dacite porphyry.

Primary Associated Igneous Rocks: Farallon Negro Volcanics: mainly andesite and dacite, but varies from basaltic to rhyolitic; generally about 50–66 weight percent SiO2 and highpotassium calc-alkaline.

Inferred Mineralizing Intrusions:
P2, Early P3, and quartzeye porphyries (hornblende-, biotite-, plagioclase-, and quartz-phyric).

Age of Mineralization: 8.02±0.14 Ma (U-Pb zircon; possibly too old due to inherited lead), 7.10±0.07 Ma (U-Pb zircon); sericitic alteration 6.75±0.09 Ma (Ar-Ar).

Major Alteration Types: Potassic (secondary biotite most widespread with secondary potassium feldspar and magnetite abundant in the immediate vicinity of the porphyry cluster), pyritic, argillic, feldspar destructive (sericitic and(or) argillic), propylitic.

Alteration Zoning: Central potassic, intermediate argillic and sericitic (overprinted/younger), distal propylitic.

Major Ore Minerals and Assemblages: Chalcopyrite and pyrite with minor covellite and chalcocite, bornite, molybdenite; chalcopyrite-pyrite most common assemblage.

Major Vein Types and Relative Ages: Quartz, magnetite, quartz-magnetite, quartz-chalcopyrite, transitional-age anhydrite, transitional to late chalcopyrite.

Major Style(s) of Mineralization: Stockwork vein, disseminated, weak supergene.

Metal Zoning: Barren core with the bulk of mineralization occurring within the potassic alteration zone; relatively barren outside of potassic alteration.

Depth of Ore Formation: 2.5 to 3.5 km Post-Ore Deformation: Minor ENE–WSW extension and E–W compression; gentle westward tilting (not significant).

Other Notable Features: Direct correlation between degree of potassic alteration and mineralization for the earliest mineralization associated with P2 porphyry. In contrast, early P3 porphyry has a potassically altered barren core, as well as high copper grades associated with potassic alteration, so there is not a correlation for copper mineralization associated with that porphyry.

Regional Tectonic Setting: Porphyry copper deposits formed at major structural discontinuity in Sunda-Banda arc indicated by reversal in polarity of recent volcanism. This region characterized by intersection of NW- and NE-trending arc-traverse tectonic lineaments as defined by regional-scale fault zones and recent earthquake hypocenters. Collison of Sunda-Banda arc with the Australian continent inferred to have caused arcparallel extension at the time of porphyry copper formation.

Significant structural control on magma emplacement and mineralization (Y/N): Yes. Batu Hijau district located in uplifted crustal block within 30 km of regional arc-traverse, left-lateral oblique-slip fault controls distribution of Miocene volcaniclastic rocks, Neogene intrusions, and present coastline. This fault corresponds to inferred tear or kink in the subducting slab beneath the arc. Margins of east-elongate quartz diorite plutons focused fracturing, dike emplacement,
and quartz vein deposition.

Primary Host Rocks: Pliocene tonalite and diorite intrusions and Miocene volcanic rocks.

Primary Associated Igneous Rocks: Quartz diorite, tonalite, andesite, granodiorite; low-K calc-alkalic with late stage rocks (tonalite to granodiorite dikes).

Inferred Mineralizing Intrusions: Na-rich tonalite porphyry complex.

Age of Mineralization: Tonalite porphyry emplacement 3.76±0.12 – 3.67±0.10 Ma (U-Pb zircon); hydrothermal biotite 3.73±0.08 Ma (Ar-Ar) Major Alteration Types: Potassic (oligoclase, biotite, quartz, magnetite), propylitic, argillic, sericitic, sodic, advanced argillic.

Alteration Zoning: Central potassic, more distal propylitic consisting of proximal actinolite, distal epidote-chlorite, and regional chlorite-calcite; structurally controlled feldspardestructive intermediate argillic, sericitic/paragonitic, illitic, and advanced argillic (pyrophyllite, andalusite, dickite, diaspore, zunyite) alteration overprints potassic and inner propylitic alteration.

Major Ore Minerals and Assemblages: Bornite, chalcopyrite, pyrite; chalcopyrite-bornite and chalcocite-bornitedigenite are common assemblages Major Vein Types and Relative Ages: Early: A-veins, including quartz-magnetite-bornite, quartz-bornite, quartz-magnetite, barren quartz (but in varying age relationships to each other); Transitional age: B-veins and “AB” veins with quartz, ±bornite, ±chalcopyrite, ±biotite, ±chlorite, ±magnetite; chalcopyrite veins with chlorite-sericite haloes; Late: pyrite-rich D-veins ±chalcopyrite, bornite, and sphalerite; Latest: gypsum veins.

Major Style(s) of Mineralization: Disseminated, vein.

Metal Zoning: Concentric zoning with central copper and gold, proximal molybdenum, and distal lead, zinc, gold, silver, and arsenic; iron is both proximal as magnetite and distal as pyrite; Ag/Au varies from about 1 to 2 in central Cu-Au zone to greater than 50 in outer Pb-Zn halo.

Depth of Ore Formation: 2–3.5 km.

Post-Ore Deformation: NW-striking faults.

Other Notable Features: Copper and gold grades are positively correlated with quartz vein density.
